- Branch: Each branch of a line segment is listed in the tree view, with the flow direction clearly identified.
- The branch is represented by an icon and prefix, indicating whether it is an outlet (TO)
or inlet (FROM)
.
- By expanding a branch, you can view the line segments, inline components, and the start/end points of the branch.
- The branch is represented by an icon and prefix, indicating whether it is an outlet (TO)
- Off-page connectors (OPC): Off-page connectors are identified with an icon
and prefix indicating the flow direction, outlet (TO) or inlet (FROM).

- To view the connected line segment, double-click the off-page connector.
- Shortcut menu: Each node in the tree has a shortcut menu that offers various functions:
- Place component in current DWG. This option allows you to place the selected component in the current drawing.
- Find in P&ID preview. Enables you to locate and highlight the selected component within the P&ID preview.
- Expand/Collapse. For branch nodes, this option allows you to expand or collapse the branch.
- Show connected P&ID line details in the list. For off-page connectors, this option allows you to view the P&ID details directly in the P&ID Line List.
